We'll start off with a brief update on the weather and the effects of Tropical Storm Eduoard with Justin Ballard from the Houston Chronicle. Then, we discuss the latest developments in local, state, and national politics with Nancy Sims and Jeronimo Cortina. Also, we revisit a conversation with a local collector of artifacts and memorabilia related to space exploration. Finally, Nanibah Chacon and Natalia Montoya Lecaros join us to talk about a new exhibit at the Rice Moody Center of Indigenous and Latin American art that explores the intersection of those cultures' history and academic concepts like math, science, and technology.
Houston Matters is an essential daily guide to the people, places, issues, and ideas that define Greater Houston. Hosted by Craig Cohen.
